    200tdi temp gauge woes

    thanks. Sounds like a sensible idea. Prc8593 is also what I think should be fitted

    200tdi temp gauge woes

    fuel gauging issues

    thanks. I was thinking along these lines. would this work though as the gauge would need 2k to read empty but the sender about 120?

    hi, Hoping with all your experience you can help me. I have recently purchased a 1986 landcover 110, the fuel gauge permanently reads full - previous owner says he replaced gauge and sender and did not fix it. I have carried out some investigation on the fuel sender and established that it is...
